Answer 1

Because the poor and downtrodden were the people Jesus embraced. Just look at the Beatitudes alone: Blessed are the poor, the meek, the merciful, the peacemakers. Not the power brokers, not the rich, not the loud and arrogant, not those who settle scores with violence. Then look at Matthew 25, where the sheep are separated from the goats based on whether they fed the hungry, clothed the naked, and welcomed the stranger. Not whether they told the poor to get a job or the migrant to go back homehome.

Answer 2

Answer:

Because the message of early Christianity was explicitly one of better fortunes for the poor and downtrodden and worse fortunes for the wealthy and powerful.
